Winbert Tschudy Petitions Md. Legislature in 1816/1817
to Build a Grist Mill
Below are links to the full pages showing Winbert Tschudy asking permission to build his mill. I've captured the portion of text that refers to it. When you're told you need a user id and password, it'll usually furnish a phone number that you can call. There weren't tons of questions asked when I called, so it's pretty much painless.
Here's the link to that page.
Each petition to the House of Delegates is read a couple times before a vote is taken and the request is sent to the Md. Senate for their approval.
Here's the link for the page above of January 29, 1817.
Next you see where a collection of bills, including Bill #180, passed by the General Assembly and were later passed by the Senate were ready for the signature of the Governor of Md. On February 15, 1817.
